The 4 Most Sleep-Deprived Workers In America

Home health aides, doctors, lawyers and police officers are among
the most sleep deprived workers, according to a survey conducted
by
Sleepy's, a mattress company.

These professions averaged only seven hours of sleep.

According to a study published in the journal SLEEP, sleep-
deprivation can affect someone's ability to make split-second
decisions, yet doctors and police officers are known for having
to often make those life-altering
decisions. Researchers in the study say that most adults
need somewhere between seven to nine hours of sleep per night to
feel well-rested.

Forest conservation workers, hairstylists and sales
representatives, on the the other hand, were the most well-rested
workers, according to the study, which
used independent analysis of sleeping habits
reported by the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention.
